How much can my 1973 mustang grande could be sold for?

it has some rust on the lower parts of the body like the bottom of the doors, side panels, and quarter panels. it also has a vinyl top that has rusted from underneath. also one of the floor pans is rusted thru as well as the trunk floor. it needs a new roof but the interior isnt so bad. it has no inner leather door panels but the interior isnt so bad. it has the original motor with 158000 miles and i havent changed anything on it but the solenoid and the battery. everything works but the ignition sticks. everything is basically original. the hood has a little bit of rust too but very small. no leaks and the windows roll up fine. i just dont have time to fix it and need to sell it. i bought it for around $2000. give me an estimate of what you think its worth. all numbers match. all original

You did not mention what is the engine.



I had got a 1973 Mustang with the 250 cid 6 cyl for around $1200 for my Son as a project car when he turned 18, but it had a broken grill and some bodywork problems that had been bondoed or brazed and then rust coming up under the bondo, and apparently the rear window leaked like a sieve and the floor under the back seat was all rusted out.



After a series of mechanical problems we ended up just giving it to charity after rebuilding the brakes, engine and transmission and still not ending up with reliable transportation. It was about $1200 to acquire and about $1200 per year maintenance expenses.



Anyway, the value is largely influenced by options, particularly what sort of engine/transmission combo you have there. It might still be worth around $2K or so.

Sorry to say, the 73 Grande with the 302 isn't exactly on the must-have list of most collectors, especially if it needs the kind of resto you describe. Personally, I wouldn't go more than 1000 (if the motor checked out okay), but you might find someone with a sentimental attachment to that model. Good luck

January is a time of renewal in the world inside of us and around us.



January was always hard for Fred though, he thought he cheated death and in a since he did. Fred felt like the heavens looked upun the world in January and counted one too many souls on earth.



People in South Carolina small towns like to gossip and talk. Rumors spread like wild fire throughout the rural counties. Fred moved to Faxville in the spring of 2003 and everyone in town had a reason why he relocated to Browns county. Old women said he was looking for a long lost love. Teenagers said he was running from the law. Young adults just thought he had had some tough luck in a bigger town and needed a second chance in a less complex world. Fred enjoyed the mystic that he possessed in Faxville and would occasionally ask his best friend Briana what was the latest reason why the stranger from Texas was in Faxville, South Carolina. Briana didn’t know why he was here either, and thought he would eventually tell her, after all they had known each other for two years now. Whenever she came around to ask him about the “reasons” Fred would always change the subject and talk about the latest Windows version or his favorite song. His favorite two subjects were computers and music. So, Briana being a true friend didn’t press the issue.



Friday at Tilex industries was always a good day for Fred. He knew he had cleared at least 6 hundred dollars this week and that the boss would be coming around with checks soon. Mr. Fairman’s working environment was never a threatening place to be. He always had an opportunity for his employees to make some more money or get some time off of work. In his mind the two incentitives balanced each other out. If one guy wanted some time off, another guy could work his shift and get some extra cash. Mr. Fairman was a brilliant buisnessman. “Fred don’t spend all of that celery in one place.” Said Mr. Fairman. “I wont, usually I spend it in three places, at my tenants office, the light bill company and oh yeah ford motors.” Fred jokingly replied. “I got an extra shift this Saturday, paying time and a half, if you want it let me know.” Said Mr. Fairman. “I cant do it this weekend sir, I’m supposed to be going up to Charlotte for an IT expo!” Frank exictingly replied. “You should get your degree in some of that fancy computer work, and come help me save some money, you already fix every computer we got around here, all you need to do is get about a hundred or so credits and I can change your title to IT consultant. How does that sound?” asked Mr. Fairman. “I don’t know sir, I

It started off well enough. I suggest spell check. (upon, SENSE not since)

The story got really bad when our main character replies, “I wont, usually I spend it in three places, at my tenants office, the light bill company and oh yeah ford motors.” Fred jokingly replied.

I now no longer care about him at this point.

The ending sounded hopeful though, but by then, I don't care because he doesn't even tell Briana where he's from or about his past.

Actually, mystery and mystic is cool, but his reply earlier just makes him boring.

Please keep writing though !!!!!!

I enjoyed the creative break!!!
Sounds really good. I'd buy it! It's got an aire of mystery.
and in a since he did...



You mean sense, not since.



Since \Since\, prep. From the time of; in or during the time subsequent to; subsequently to; after; -- usually with a past event or time for the object. Example, %26quot;We have been doing it that way SINCE 1956.%26quot;

Actual call centre conversations



Customer: %26quot;I've been ringing 0700 2300 for two days and can't get through to enquiries, can you help?”

Operator: %26quot;Where did you get that number from, sir?”

Customer: %26quot;It was on the door to the Travel Centre%26quot;.

Operator: %26quot;Sir, they are our opening hours%26quot;.



Samsung Electronics

Caller: %26quot;Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?%26quot;

Operator: %26quot;I'm sorry, sir, I don't understand who you are talking about%26quot;

Caller: %26quot;On page 1, section 5, of the user guide it clearly states that I need

to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the number for Jack?%26quot;

Then there was the caller who asked for a knitwear company in Woven.

Operator: %26quot;Woven? Are you sure?%26quot;

Caller: %26quot;Yes. That's what it says on the label;Woven in Scotland %26quot;.



On another occasion, a man making heavy breathing sounds from a phone box told a worried operator: %26quot;I haven't got a pen, so I'm steaming up the window to write the number on%26quot;.

unfortunately people can be that dumb. i know a few who are.
  • hair gel
  • increasechances to find a date
  • How do i take my boyfriend?

    I know what i think, id just like to c if everyone else thinks the same.



    This guy i just started seeing was with his x for 2 years they was engaged. He dumped her as he didnt know what he wanted. Whilst he has been with me he has changed his car and has put his Exs stuff in it (Tax Disc Holder, Novelty Boxing Gloves, Novelty airfreshner) he passes her road every day after work even thou he doesnt need to go that way.

    The other day he saw her driving in the distance he sped up to catch her up she saw him stuck her hand out the window , he hooted she hooted, he hooted again. then she turned of down her road.



    within minutes a text message came thru on his phone the ex had text him nice motor ;-), he replied straight away, he only sent about 3 messages in total but was pretty quick at replying.



    since the break up they havent kept in touch only talk when they bump into each other.



    if ur bf did this what would you think?
    How do i take my boyfriend?
    i would think that he still has some feelings for her.

    if they were engaged and it was that serious..

    it's hard to get over.
    How do i take my boyfriend?
    if she's an ex why has he still got her numbers on his phone. it's different if you speak to them alot, but by the sounds of it he doesn't, so you need to ask him this question.
    tell him how you feel
    He's obviously not over her, and he's probably using you to try and move on but he's not willing to let go of her completely.
    I'd think he still wants her more than me and would kick him to the kerb if he didn't stop it.
    He sounds like he isnt over him at all! Why did they break up?



    I wouldnt bother with him. Even if he truely does want to be with you, how could he do that when he inst over his ex? I would have a talk with him about it and decide where ur relationship goes after that.



    Goodluck with everything :)
    I would just dump him! this world has better guys in it sweetie. this may be fates way of telling that you 2 shoudn't be together. I suggest meeting more guys first before going into engagement. everyone can find the perfect someone who only cares about you out there. i hope you do and good luck! =)
    Seems he cant let go, be careful that his undecided mind of 17 months ago does not kick into place and make him realise he wants her back.
    i wud think he isnt over her
    Hmmm it sounds like he definitely is interested in her still and she's the same, otherwise why make such a big deal out of bumping into eachother on the road!



    I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you should dump this guy and move on, I was used by a guy to get over his ex and let me tell you it's a horrible experience. I wish somebody had warned me and I had dumped him.
    He still wants her. You deserve SO much better. So, all you have to do is say %26quot;Goodbye, player%26quot;



    Good luck. ;)

    Your take on my dream please (very long and detailed)?

    I was on a train ride up north. Husband was there, but in the dream I only saw him once or twice. It was beautiful outside-trees, rivers, mountains. Beauty everywhere. I remember hearing someone on the loudspeaker talking about a glass bridge that was once used, but has been closed down. They said if you look through the trees you can see it. I opened these russet colored velvet draperies and looked through a picture window. (still on the train, but stopped because no scenery was going past) There was a beautiful blue river below and spanning it was this bridge. Made of metal and glass. The sides/walls of the bridge were glass blocks, and the framework was metal. They were aged/cloudy, but still beautiful. I saw the floor (?) of the bridge and knew it was also made of glass, but it was dirty and if I walked on it, I knew it would break.



    The scene changed and I was outside. The train was stopped for a break and we were allowed to stretch our legs. Then husband and I were in a rowboat, (I didn't see him, but knew he was there) but I don't remember any oars, but we were moving. No motor, no sails. We were on a slow moving river, and I was thinking how beautiful the scenery was. I dipped my hand into the cool water and it felt soooo good. I wanted to jump in. I looked up ahead and there was a kind of a pen in the water for swimming creatures. Kind of like a %26quot;Shamu%26quot; pen if you've ever been to Sea World. But more natural. There were 3 grizzly bears swimming in the water, lazily. Their fur was wet and I remember seeing the ends of their fur shining like silver.



    Then I remember hurrying back to the train. I was thinking....OMG we're going to be late and miss the train! Sure enough the train had just pulled out of the station. We went inside and husband promptly disappeared, going to sightsee in the station/museum kind of building. I spoke to one of the workers and asked if they could call the train back. He told me no, but they would be waiting for us in Eugene and we can take a taxi up there to Eugene. I asked them if I could simply stay overnight and catch the next one. They said %26quot;No, because it's not the same train and your belongings will not be on the train.%26quot; I am getting pretty stressed out at this point. I asked how much a taxi would be. The man told me to go outside and ask. As I approached the door, an older woman whispered to me, %26quot;Talk to the first car-they will deal with you%26quot; I went to the 3rd car instead and was told it would be 1400 dollars to drive up to Eugene. I gasped and felt my insides tighten up. I went to the second car and this woman was there. If you've ever seen the Muppets, she looked like a human version of Janice in the Electric Mayhem Band. Blonde-hippie type. She said she could get us there for 1000 bucks.



    At this point I'm thinking, I don't have that kind of money in my checking account, and I don't have a credit card to cover it. I am near tears now and almost frantic. I am thinking...%26quot;Well, i could write a check and hope it didn't come through till I got paid%26quot; Then I realized that my wallet and all my belongings are on the train. I have nothing, no money, no cell phone, nothing. i am stuck in this town and no way to get out. Husband is no where to be found. I burst into tears, frustration, anger, sorrow, worry. all the emotions rolled into one. And then I woke up.



    From re-reading it, this sounds a bit like financial worries. But that sounds too simple to me. Any ideas? If you have read this far, thanks for taking the time.
    Your take on my dream please (very long and detailed)?
    what i read is:



    the unused bridge is beautiful, but dirty and fragile-- although a bridge may often refers to a transition or a passing over difficulties, or even marriage itself, taken together with the aforementioned adjectives, this strikes me as possible sexual symbolism.



    You are drifting lazily, then, because of your inattention, you find yourself stranded.



    oddly, you didn't miss the boat, but you did miss the train. this suggests that you are afraid that if you take the easy route, you're going to miss the opportunity to do what you had planned.



    and there's that whole disappearing husband in there too.



    I think you should talk to him.

    Well, I think we should start with the %26quot;husband%26quot;. You'll notice that you refer to him as %26quot;husband%26quot; and not %26quot;my husband%26quot;, so there's obviously some issues there. The whole dream is probably based on your relationship with him. The scenery is very beautiful, so you must have had a very nice relationship with him. This relationship was just taking you along very nicely, so that you didn't need to be in control of your own destiny. That's why there were no oars. You liked being able to trust your husband to provide for your happiness. But the bridge that takes you to this beautiful scenery is starting to crumble. You see a pen, which warns of being trapped. You then see some dangerous creatures, disguised as something beautiful. You realize the mirage and you know it's time to get back, to where you can control your own destiny. You are afraid of taking that leap, however. Do you have enough wherewithal to make it on your own? You have a job, but want more security. After all, what you're leaving is quite beautiful. Security, I think is what it is. You make your own money, but I guess he must make a tidy sum to add to that. I think you definitely want to be more free, but do you have the guts to become a real hippy/Jack Kerouac kind of person?
